Coyote, one thing I've not seen mentioned is the height of the layout. Usually wiring and other items are located underneath. And being over the hill myself I know it's difficult to work underneath sometimes. Try to make it high enough so you can sat on a short seat and work at a comfortable level for you. This is from past experience on a large club layout and a home layout also. Also keep main wire runs near the front with feeders back to the track. I know this is past the track design stage, but needs to be kept in mind as you design. If you can't wire a beautiful section of track or service it, it becomes a static layout. Good Luck. Larry NMRA
